This year:

Rolex - 3
Tudor - 1
Omega - 5
Longines - 1
Movado - 1
Hamilton pocket - 1

Good news is there are only a couple left on my list that I gotta have in the next year!!

Glad I am not yet as addicted as John

Cru Jones · 9 November 2012, 10:32 AM

watches? one (and flipped one to make it happen). straps? uh-oh.......

Rags · 9 November 2012, 10:34 AM

Between last Nov & now I've bought 2. A Datejust for my wife & a 16610 sub for me.

Shikar · 9 November 2012, 10:41 AM

I didn't buy a single watch. Ever. Never. :)
And DavidSW doesn't know my banker either. Nope. Never.

Regards.

WyoWatch · 9 November 2012, 10:42 AM

Zero.

Gaijin · 9 November 2012, 10:43 AM

This year?

Just one.

Alcan · 9 November 2012, 10:48 AM

Two Rolex for me this year, a 14060 and a gold 6222:

FeelingTheBlues · 9 November 2012, 10:50 AM

Got five so far and a sixth one on the way...

guyrolex · 9 November 2012, 12:45 PM

I added a GMT II C and a Sub LV ceramic both new from AD's and love both- but the LVC green has replaced the GMT IIC C and Daytona as my everyday business dress watch- pictures really don't do it justice- the dial is almost black all the time except under fluorescent light- it rarely actually looks as green as the pictures on this forum in normal circumstances but when it does it is awesome- I would say it is the most beautiful dial I have ever seen- almost mesmerizing - and it blends in perfectly with formal suits and ties

submariner66 · 9 November 2012, 12:46 PM

2 this year. First a 114060 then a 14060M. Plans for next will include a SS Daytona and or a Exp. I , then I want a GMT IIc. That would probably due it then I will start to save up for a gold watch, could take a few years though.

vette boy 52 · 9 November 2012, 11:23 PM

Two, first was an IWC Portofino 8 day hand wound and the second is a
16610LV M serial. Love them both.

Andrés G · 9 November 2012, 11:53 PM

I bought 5. Flipped 4 and kept 1.

slim4511 · 9 November 2012, 11:54 PM

Two this year. GMT IIc and Exp II polar. Love both of them.

haynjas · 10 November 2012, 12:10 AM

In : GMT IIC, Daytona SS White Dial, JLC Reverso, IWC Port, Polar Explr (16570), Polar Explr II (216570)

Out : Explr II Black Dial (16570) , JLC Reverso, IWC Port, Polar Explr II (16570), Polar Explr II (216570), Daytona SS Black Dial.

This is a full time job....

Ray T · 10 November 2012, 03:29 AM

This year has been quiet for me, Just a Tudor Black Bay, Pelagos and a JLC Duometre a Quantieme Lunaire

tifosi · 10 November 2012, 03:58 AM

Zero for me...maybe next year!

mps354 · 12 November 2012, 05:56 PM

i picked up a 116610lv early this year, and picked up an explorer 2 a few weeks ago on the forum. im coming dangerously close to #3...

Maxx · 12 November 2012, 09:46 PM

2 for me

Rolex Seadweller 16600 and an Omega Speedy Pro 30th Anniversary. Done for the year. Goal for next year - a Rolex 42mm Polar Explorer 2:)

tattooedfagin · 12 November 2012, 10:06 PM

2 for me but there could so easily have been more if funds allowed

(that's, in the last 12 months)

Mephist · 12 November 2012, 11:45 PM

One Milgauss GV, one Explorer II and one Datejust. Love the Milgauss GV and Datejust the most, thinking of flipping the Explorer II for a Sub, or something

vintagewaferthin · 12 November 2012, 11:48 PM

so far ive bought 3. my early 50s 14k yg lord elgin, my late 40s tissot 14k gf bumper, and lastly my newest purchase, a mid 50s 14k gf tissot visodate with a roulette date wheel. who knows, there may be a 4th before the end of the year.

CJ01 · 13 November 2012, 12:04 AM
